Hi Guys,

My white R33 has a scrape on its body kit (my driveway sucks).

So I head off to repco to get some touch up paint only to be told that they dont stock paint for imported cars, and go to a panel beaters who can knock me up a batch.

Has anyone touched up their white R33s? if so what code paint did you use, or do you know what the nearest match is?

There doesnt seem to be any paint codes on my car, the plates in the engine bay are pretty cryptic and the door labels only have tyre information

is it in the same spot for the 34??

i think it is above the rb25 on the blue plate its says gv1 g the car is black.

does anyone know if that is correct because i wan to get my mags sprayed to match colour of car??

Yep, GV1 = Nissan pearl black

QM1 - white for mine was called Polar White by Repco when they mixed up a spray can full for me, it was a perfect match.

Just a tip, to touch up the paint get a small paintbrush, the type used by art students - 30 cents each from hardware house, so buy plenty!

Spray a small amount on the inside of the spray can's cap or any small container. Use the paintbrush to dip it in the paint and paint the scraped parts of your bodykit or chipped parts of body panels.

The results were amazing for me can't see any scrapes at all

Sorry its not Repco, it was actually at Autobarn in Blacktown. All these car parts places are the same to me lol

Really helpful staff, they even came out to the carpark and checked the plate to make sure its right.

Sorry for the mis-information

    • hahaha @joshuaho96 the most action it gets is when I have to drive from West to SE VIC to meet the fam. Even then, it;s on highway cruising speeds
    • don't know anyone in this thread, but i just found it, read the entire thing in a few hours, realized greg is still posting progress, and just have to say, this is awesome. it looks awesome. 100% right about the Uras kit making it a pain to get on hoists...have the same kit on my 34 and it takes six 2x4s and race ramps to do it without taking parts off. this reminds me exactly of this thread. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/r63-amg-the-unicorn-of-my-destruction/110824/page8/
    • The only way to make that better is to weld on some bozozoku tips up past window height and roll with the cool kids.
    • I'd want an even MORE side on view. More or less you want to make sure the outlet is actually square with the outermost part of the bumper. Or you end up getting soot all over your bumper from your hektik exhaust. In any case, it looks pretty close. I think the way to fix this is probably more of an overhaul at an exhaust specialty shop if you want tips that are rounded off or sit nicely with the bumper but have proper clearance and don't move - Probably more of a redesign than a quick fix. I've pencilled in my own exhaust with its own various problems, pinholes, PITA fitment, and other issues and can see myself going to a shop and saying "JUST DO THIS BUT BETTER?"  Which is gonna work better than any more small fixes. I'm gonna chime in here officially with "from an outsider perspective this exhaust looks fine so this is self OCD probably" (which I also suffer from)
